What game did you last play?!?!?!?

Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) (Microsoft Xbox 360)

Last saved after clearing Wave Ocean as Tails in Sonic's story, game over'd at the mach segment in Kingdom Valley and was sent back to my last save.
 
Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Just cleared 3-8, going well so far! This is...definitely the longest world in the game, and I think it best resembles a traditional Paper Mario chapter as opposed to a series of linear Mario levels. Not quite at the boss yet but I'm getting close. Also 3-7 is a great level, I love how it just strips everything away from you and makes you work your way back up...idk how many times I used a hammer sticker only to see the message "you have no hammer" lol



Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Beat the second world, Lollipop Land. Got to get a better taste of the new abilities, and...man Circus Kirby is crazy and I still can't get proper control of it. The boss was also interesting and probably has a lot of lore behind it that's yet to be revealed... Also I reiterate that Kirby Fighters is incredible, there's a standalone eShop version you should get if you somehow haven't played Triple Deluxe yet
 
Paper Mario: The Origami King

I'm close to getting 100% on the game.
I found all the Toads, Not-Bottomless Holes, and ? Blocks, and all I need to do is to complete all of the bosses in the Battle Lab to get the last Collectible Treasure, and to complete 16 stages in Speed Rings.
 
Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Beat World 3 and got the third Royal Sticker. The boss was amazing and my favorite in the game yet. I was better prepared here than with the previous boss, stocking up on a lot more Things, and I'm not going to go without giving the sheer catchiness of this boss music a mention. It sure took a while but World 3 is definitely a lot of fun, I like how open-ended it feels compared to the previous two worlds.

Three Royal Stickers down, three to go.
 
Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) (Microsoft Xbox 360)

Cleared both Sonic and Shadow's stories, all that's left is the remainder of Silver's story and the last story.
 
Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart (PC)

SBR2 Sonic is great, you can just mash the Acceleration button, and get a consistently fast speed (80, which lowers when you touch the ground). I would argue this is actually skill based gameplay as you need to optimise your route to get the most air time so you can keep max speed, and use rolling where you can get a higher speed of it (100+), but that's just me looking into it too much. The real appeal is doing dumb shortcuts by jumping over walls and going 80 mile per hour in a game where the fastest characters usually go is ~50, just by pressing 'A'.

Cleared Silver's story, only thing that is left is the final story.

He sounds like a broken character compared to the kart drivers lol.
 
Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Played through the first half of World 4. Enemies are definitely getting stronger, so I've been investing in more Shiny and Flashy stickers to combat that. But man...can I just say how much I loved 4-3? A truly epic level, perhaps even better than 3-7, and it reminded me a lot of Dark Bloo Inn from Color Splash, one of my favorite levels in said game. Also found it interesting how there's a secret door that leads directly between it and Decalburg...I don't think there's any other level like that.



EDIT: Beat World 4, and...I'll put this next part in a spoiler tag:

The boss of this world, Mizzter Blizzard...I felt so sad for him. All he wanted was a body that wouldn't melt... If only it actually snowed a decent amount around these parts I might actually try to rebuild him in real life, like he asked me to. So sad...

Also apparently you can grind Infinijumps just by sticking a Flashy Clone Jump onto the invisible block in 1-1...wow that's awesome. Got several other flashy stickers that way too.

Two more Royal Stickers to go!

Played through this game again to celebrate Sakurai's 50th birthday. It's really short and very simplistic by modern Kirby standards but still a joy to play.

Happy birthday, Sakurai.
